Rank 10 Chocobo Barding

[Felis]

it's my understanding from one of the duty commenced or a live letter that if you reallocate your points you lose the Paladin barding and gain the Dragoon barding in such a case. personally I think it's just more worth it to use the Thavnarian Onions to get the choco rank to 20 48k GC points is a lot of GC that could go toward something else

No
You keep the tank barding, but can only get the DPS barding after the chocobo break the level cap. Only what not sure is if lv 11 is enough or if it need level 20

Next barding triggers when hitting level 20, but currently its not shure if you will get all 3 or just a secund one...

If this is the case I'm seriously about to flip my s***. I just got to 10 on Attacker, ended up with the Dragoon armour (didn't read this thread before hand), purchased a pepper to reset/place my points and guess what. Nothing. Then I read that I needed to break my level cap so I figured, ok, need to open up 11.

Are you saying I seriously need to get 10 onions and do that ridiculous level process again (to 20) to get my WHM armour? W.T.F

[ServerCollaps]

you can get the 2nd armor with approx. lvl 15 and the third with 20

dont forget you dont get a skillpoint per lvl up, you get 7 at 7, 8 at 8, 9 at 9 and so on
with hitting lvl 11 you'll get 10 or 11 pts which allows you to unlock 4 skills at once (they require 1 pt, 2 pts, 3 pts, 4 pts)

[Yukiko]

From my understanding you need to break the lvl10 cap once, then onwards you can level up normal... (not confirmed)
Lets say the skillpoints you need stay same with 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10 and you will get 11 points for each new level up to 20... that makes total 110 skillpoints!
Then you have enough to spend it on all 3 skilltrees...

2 x 55 = 110

Would be nice if a GM/Mod can confirm if we only need one choco (Thavnairian) onion to be granted access up til level 20 or one choco onion for every level after level 10. I sure hope it's the first option though,those choco onion are rather expensive.

On a side note, after hitting level 10 and using the choco onion, you will not be able to get additional set of barding if you respec straight away! Just tested that myself and wasted 40 allied seals.

It's pretty clear in the patch notes:
- Chocobo Level Cap
For chocobos that have already attained the maximum rank, rewarding them with a Thavnairian onion following training will increase this upper limit by one.
* Chocobo companions cannot exceed rank 20.

Guess I wasn't paying attention again, this is going to hurt the wallet quite a bit.

On a side note, anyone know how to set the favorite feed? Feeding when stabled or summon it with the special food?

I heard you have to feed him 10 times while stabled with the same food.

patch notes say 2 times

- Favorite Feed
If you reward your chocobo with the same snack after repeated training sessions, that fruit or vegetable will become the chocobo's favorite feed. Your chocobo's favorite feed can then be used to grant beneficial effects when summoned to battle. You may change your chocobo’s favorite feed if you so desire by repeatedly rewarding your chocobo with a different snack after training.

Don't work with Krakka Root, would be too easy.
